Sleep is one of the most talked-about (and often most stressful) parts of early parenthood. From rigid schedules to pressure around “good sleepers,” many parents find themselves caught between their instincts and the expectations they’re hearing everywhere else.
In this episode of Well Considered, Laura Longanecker, a registered nurse and infant sleep specialist behind Strawberry Moon Sleep, shares a refreshing and grounded perspective about infant sleep.
We explore what normal infant sleep actually looks like, why so many families feel overwhelmed by conflicting advice, and how to approach sleep in a way that supports both baby and parent. In this episode, we discuss:
What’s biologically normal when it comes to infant sleep
Why modern sleep advice can feel so confusing and stressful
The difference between supporting sleep and controlling it
How feeding, development, and connection all play a role
Letting go of unrealistic expectations and outside pressure
If you’ve ever felt unsure, overwhelmed, or like you’re “doing it wrong” when it comes to your baby’s sleep, this episode offers a calmer, more compassionate perspective.
